MISS PIPS

Catz 'n Dogz, the Polish duo consisting of Grzegorz Demianczuk and Wojciech Taranczuk, are coming to the Roof of Superior Ingredients on December 15th. Over the past two decades, they have established themselves as one of the most accomplished and respected acts in electronic music, consistently releasing music that resonates with different micro-tribes of music lovers and peers alike.

Catz 'n Dogz have graced the stages of some of the most prestigious festivals and clubs worldwide. Their performances at festivals like Glastonbury, Tomorrowland, Bestival, EDC, BPM, and Parklife have earned them a valuable place on festival lineups. In Europe, they have played at iconic venues such as Watergate in Berlin, Ushuaia in Ibiza, and Fabric in London, consistently curating sets that are both technically proficient and memorable. Their ability to read and energize a crowd has made them a sought-after act in the music industry.

Their success has not gone unnoticed, earning them strong press coverage and numerous accolades. They have been featured on the covers of Mixmag and DJ Mag Spain, and they have secured spots in the Resident Advisor Top 100 DJ poll. Their album Basic Colour Theory was listed in DJ Mag's Top 10 Albums, and they were nominated for the Best Track award at the World Music Conference in 2013 for "They Frontin'" featuring Monty Luke. Additionally, they have consistently been recognized as Poland’s top producers, winning accolades from Muno.pl and continuing to dominate the Polish music scene.

Their early work caught the attention of Berlin's underground scene, leading them to release music on respected labels like Trapez, Crosstown Rebels, and Pokerflat. This period was crucial in shaping their sound, which blends elements of house, techno, disco, and deep house, often layered with bold spoken phrases and sexy vocals.

Their reputation grew as they transitioned to producing under the Catz 'n Dogz moniker. With a commitment to exploring new territories, they launched their own labels, PETS Recordings and its sub-label STEP, which have become platforms for bass-heavy, groove-laden tracks that embody their proud and playful style. These labels are vivid illustrations of their ability to curate and create music that speaks to the dancefloor while maintaining artistic integrity.

Their production skills have led to collaborations with industry heavyweights like Claude VonStroke, Jamie Jones, Bicep, Gorgon City, and many others. Additionally, they have remixed tracks for pop icons such as Shakira, Rufus Du Sol, and Roisin Murphy, showcasing their versatility and ability to cross genre boundaries.

Doubleheader

Gray Area is pioneering the "Doubleheader" event series, drawing inspiration from back-to-back baseball games to showcase artists with similar styles but unique fan bases. By having one artist follow another and culminating in a collaborative back-to-back (B2B) set, Doubleheader aims to create a powerful platform for musical discovery and cross-pollination. Embracing the "B2B" spirit, the initiative seeks to introduce audiences to new sounds while strengthening the dance music ecosystem.
